Our expert says:

Tell your bro-in-law to stop this immediately, that you are working on the problems in your own mariage just as he ought to be working on his ( and both of your marriages should be seeing a mariage counsellor ) --- and make it extremely clear to him that you will have NOTHING to do with him other than as a brother-in-law, and will have NO secret meetings with him for any reason.
